Having built a few Springers (I'm on my 10th) i would say those scuppers in the bulwarks (the holes to let the water off the deck) are too small... make them BIGGER!.

Otherwise, that looks like a nice build!

Quiet, my son reads these posts and he is still on me about not taking you up on the offer. LOL No winter building breaks for us here but we will be getting into the Hurricane season soon enough. We got chased away from the lake today by a large thunderstorm after two runs. Thats ok we needed the rain.[&o]

I am still trying to get my Apache back in the water, hydro rescue boat and my 1968 Mustang. So I can relate, to many projects not enough time. Keep in touch.
